Walking out of match will send a more powerful message than winning it even by 10 wickets. Stand up for your army.#WalkOutFromPakMatch

While Indians want to see Pakistan defeated, they also want to stand with our Jawans. It is up to you to decide if India should have walked out of the match or playing it was the right decision.
